Blog Post & Recipe: linguine with fried eggs & rosemary

This dish tastes fancy and indulgent, yet light at the same time. It comes together in a snap – the most time consuming part was waiting for the pasta to cook.

Blog Post & Recipe: Kale, Sausage and Flageolets

Blog Post & Recipe: Skye Gyngell’s fried egg with burnt sage butter, chilli and garlicky yoghurt

Blog Post & Recipe: Marvelous, golden

The onion sweetens the cream slightly, and the anchovies mitigates all with a profound salinity. Eaten the next morning, warmed moderately with a poached egg and a salad of the most peppery, bitterest greens you can find, it's exceptional.

Blog Post & Recipe: Incongruity, Thy Name is Baby Octopus & Fried Eggs

Catalan culinary tradition pairs mar y muntanya often in the chicken and shrimp stews of the region of Girona, and baby octopus with fried eggs loosely follows the same line of thinking, just focusing unapologetically on the infantile and gestational end of the spectrum of life.

Chicken Mug-Pies / Pot Roasted Chicken / Fennel & Olive Pasta on a Fried Egg

Blog Post & Recipe: Chicken Mug-Pies

I baked all of them at once, and refrigerated half for another night, covered in foil; they reheated nicely in the oven at 350F for 20-30 minutes, keeping the foil on to protect the crusts from over-browning.

Blog Post & Recipe: Pot Roasted Chicken for Rainy Autumn Days

I used to make it in a Crockpot when I was very busy and it would cook all day until we needed it. Nowadays I don’t have such a thing and I’ve reverted back to the way my grandmother would have cooked it, in a heavy covered Dutch oven.

Blog Post & Recipe: Fennel & Kalamata olive pasta on fried egg

Thick bucatini pasta coated in a sweet red sauce and topped with diced kalamata olives and sautéed fennel. Served on top of a perfectly fried egg! The yolk adds so much to the flavor of the red sauce.

So the trick to making sauce that tastes like it’s been simmering for hours is to cook it down to a thick pasty texture and then rehydrate it by adding a ladle or two of starchy pasta water to the pan. You should also use tongs ...

Blog Post & Recipe: Beef or Pork Galette?

I had seen some posts of galettes in the past but did not know exactly what it was. I looked it up and according to wikipedia, it is a round and crusty cake but I am more inclined to think of it as a pie with a hole in the middle and instead of being cooked in a pie dish, it is folded up and around the filling, leaving it uncovered in the middle.

Blog Post: Top Five: Ways to Eat a Fried Egg

A fried egg is our trick for turning an otherwise ho-hum meal into a great one. If we're low on fixings and need to make a full meal out of just a few spare ingredients, a fried egg is one of the first things we think of adding.

Chickpeas.

Article/recipe: Skye Gyngell pays homage to the mighty chickpea.

Includes recipes for scallops with chickpeas, mint and chilli; buffalo mozzarella, chickpeas, red pepper and olives; chickpeas with fried eggs, labne, burnt sage and chilli butter; and chickpea, tomato, chard and bread soup. Be aware that The Independent screens its articles behind sign-in walls after they have been on the site for a few days.

I love them partly pounded with olive oil and finished with lemon juice, chilli, garlic and tahini paste to form a rough type of houmous eaten on toast or simply with flat bread.
